This is Part Seven of Ten of The Soho Strangler. With three women dead, no witnesses to their murders and no clues to their killer’s identity, although the Police still insisted that this was not the work of a serial-killer but three different murders with remarkable similarities, the press had a suspect… a ‘Soho crime boss’ who was a known strangl…

This is Part Six of Ten of The Soho Strangler. By May 1936, three women had been strangled, by an unknown assailant, in their own homes in Soho. With the Police investigation drawing to a familiar terrifying conclusion, that – with no witnesses or suspects – once again, the murder of a Soho prostitute will go unsolved. With no suspect to pin the mu…
There is a saying that “a man’s home is his castle” — it is supposed to be a sanctuary, a place of safety and security. Unfortunately for many, anti-social behaviour can make them feel uncomfortable and on edge in their own homes. When problems like these arise, it can take weeks for the police to resolve them, and only after the damage has been do…

This is Part Four of Ten of The Soho Strangler. By the morning of Friday 17th April 1936, word had spread around Soho that 43-year-old Jeanne-Marie Cotton had been murdered; strangled in her own flat, using her own scarf, with no suspects or motive. It seemed like a random unprovoked attack on a defenceless woman for no reason. It was a case which …
After making the 50-mile journey to the cottage in the Somerset village of Loxton, Peter found Noreen reclining on a sofa in the sitting room.

Cathy’s cigarette lighter, inhaler and car keys placed in a stra…
As night fell, Roy Lightfoot returned home from work. He closed the door behind him and anticipated hearing the delicate sound of the dog's paws on the floor as Tessa came to greet him.

Shrill sirens could be heard as firefighters jumped from their trucks to control the flames emanating from the imposing concrete structure.

After months (and even years) of research, I'm proud to announce the new series coming to Murder Mile, it's titled The Soho Strangler; a little known series of murders as infamous (in its day) as Jack the Ripper itself.

Whitechapel, East London. Famous among many True Crime fans for the Jack the Ripper Murders where women on the very fringes of society were incredibly vulnerable to a murderer like Jack.

It had been a particularly bitter winter, and the ice in the canal was just beginning to thaw. As the men strolled by the waterway, they spotted something floating in the murky canal.
